21


as we all age through time, i believe all of us are facing changes in their lives. anyway, i was looking and reading all my old posts back then and to be honest, it was soooo lame but I really fond of my old memories.

as most of you know, i am 21 years old this year. yep, 21.

back when I was 19 and half, I was working as a part-time at restaurant. i worked to earn some money to buy some stuffs. during the time that i worked, i learned how to communicate, talk with people as most people claimed that i was very, very quiet girl. i talked randomly with the customers, such as where do they come from or where do they work, but I did enjoy myself talking to foreigners, most of the customers are from australia, saudi arabia and korea. i also enjoyed having conversation with regular customers, most of them were foreigners who lived in malaysia for years and they love to be here.

other than that, i have learned how life is getting harder as we get old. as we get old, we need to work on our own to earn money, i can no longer ask for money pockets from my parents if i want to buy anything. even when i go to college, i can only ask money to pay my rent, for my car monthly payment, and to pay petrol. yes, that's it. In case of short of money, i would ask them if i need some. this teaches me how to be more independent, and not depending on them. i see kids these days are easily get what they want. i mean, seriously, 7 years old owns an iPhone. for what? even some parents, no, A LOT OF PARENTS allow their babies/kids to play their tabs.

in my opinion, if they get close to technology stuffs, they would not enjoy their childhood. back in my days, when i was small, i used to be called as 'weird' because i did weird stuffs, for example, i poured lots of baby powders on top of table and poured water to it to make it into flour-like. i was playing 'masak-masak' with my little sister. other than that, there was one time where i went to my dad's hometown, i did 'mini house/farm' with bunch of woods for horses because I REALLY WANTED TO HAVE HORSES OR PONIES, although in real life, i did not own one. hmm. what else? my parents, especially my dad, scolded me for putting my handphone beside me when i wanna go to sleep.

that is one part of being an adult; independent. although they only lend some money on certain things but i realised that they want me to learn that how hard work pays off. that's how you earn money. unless you are rich. nothing in this world is free. i thanked them for that. 

ok, i think it's enough to talk about that, and i'm sorry if you guys get offended by this because it is just my opinion. this is random post and insya-Allah, i would post more after this.
